| Abstract | ||
| Allen Tate (1899-1979) was one of a group of poets known as the Fugitives or Agrarians who participated in the establishment of an independent American literature . One of the major characteristic features that coloured Tate’s works is his reverence of the past of his region , the American South, as connected with the past of the European literary tradition that was prevailing in Europe before industrialism and science had dominated all fields of the modern life . In this respect he draws heavily on T. S. Eliot’s (1888-1965) notion of the continuity of the literary tradition and the connection of the past with the present . The aim of this research is to trace how the past appears in Tate’s "Ode to Confederate Dead’’ and the role it plays in this poem . The conclusion sums up the foundings of this study. | ||
